Re: [Need Info] Gauranteed Price Issues/ Need Opinions From Chic

No Price Guarantees for you LOL

I understand, sorta, the more you get the more you pay. But are there additional costs to RCN for the different channels you choose to watch? Am I wrong or are all signals available to all houses and it's the STB (and it's authorization code and chip) that designates what you can or can't see?? If that is the case, all signals/channels are there, it doesn't cost more to send you HD or this premium or that premium, it is simply the result of electronic switching in the STB.

If you pay for HD you should get all HD not some in this package and some in this one. Especially when they all of a sudden decide what was once an included HD channel you had watched for years is NOW a premium HD channel.

Now that the "Digital Tier" should be a non tier as all signals will be digital, we should have either of two scenarios. 1/ Pick and choose totally a la cart 2/ Choice of 2 tiers, Everything except HD, and everything including HD.

I always think the KISS system (keep it simple stupid) works best. Am I a dreamer??? LOL

That's my rant and I'm stickin' to it !!
